The construction project was at a point where there really wasn't anything that I could do last weekend, so we decided to hop in the car and get away for a much needed break. We were looking for a good blend of relaxation, wine, sight seeing, wine, and city, so we built the itinerary around a friend's cabin up in Western Ontario. Here are some pics from this short summer break.

Niagara Falls, from the American side. I'm a sucker for waterfalls. |
|
Niagara Falls, from Canada. That's a lot of water! |
|
Niagara on the Lake. A bit too cutesy for me, but still a great home base for exploring wine country. |
|
Tres Chique! Shopping in Niagara on the Lake. |
|
But the real draw was the wine. We took a bike tour of some wineries. There are hundreds in the region and the wine was fantastic! A great reason for a return trip. |
|
Then it was "into the wild" of Western Ontario. Beautiful countryside. |
|
Heather and Dan's "cabin" in the woods. |
|
On the return trip, we stopped in Toronto. I was very impressed with this city! It was incredibly vibrant with loads of downtown living and community. One evening wasn't nearly enough. |
Now, back to work!
